    Join me in my home for painting and help with my garden and general maintenance, Montreal, Canada

    --

    Hello !

    Welcome to my house !

    I have been hosting volunteers since 2014 and soon it will be 10 years!

    Wow! How time flies!

    The help I need is largely organization, and cleaning the house.

    If you can apply tips from Marie Kondo, that's great!


    Depending on the season;
    * vegetable garden and clean the gardens = May to October.

    * Do small repairs (plastering, wood etc) = as needed

    I'm a mother with my daughter 26 years old and my son 24 years old.

    My daily life is very busy and I get to keep my smile. :)

    It will be a pleasure to welcome you and help you discover the cities.
    Montreal and around !

    Looking forward to welcoming you !

    ===============================

    Bonjour & bienvenue !

    J'accueille des bénévoles depuis 2014 et cela fera bientôt 10 ans !

    Wow ! Comme le temps passe vite !

    L'aide dont j'ai besoin est en grande partie l'organisation, le nettoyage de la maison.

    Si vous pouvez appliquer les conseils de Marie Kondo, c'est génial !

    ET,

    Selon la saison ;
    * faire le potager et nettoyer les jardins = mai à octobre.
    * Faire de petites réparations (plâtrage, bois etc) = selon les besoins
    * recherche sur internet = selon les besoins.

    Je suis une mère de famille avec ma fille de 26 ans et mon fils de 24 ans.

    Mon quotidien est très chargé et je garde le sourire :)

    Au plaisir de vous accueillir !
    Et de vous faire découvrir Montréal et ses environs !
